Yo all,
I can't seem to go onto .mac, neither can anyone else in my family, or send or receive emails. Or generally do anything with my .mac email address, par exempler upload my runs onto nikeplus.
Is anyone experiencing this? I really need to access my emails!
thanks

I can send email via the .mac server (using mail.app) just fine. I've not checked if I can log in directly to .mac services online.

Edit: I can log in fine. Here's the status symbol on the left toolbar:

Yeah, it's working for me too. Maybe try resetting your modem/router by unplugging it for half a minute or so. 🙂

It's weird, everything else internet related is fine, i just can't get onto www.mac.com, receive or send any e-mails or many things .mac related.
Strangely enough i can still log onto ichat...
Would appreciate any help, i have already tried resetting and restarting my wireless routers.

It sounds obvious, but do you need to re-subscribe? 🙂

My .mac email has been down all afternoon. Can't get my .mac mail on the web or on the Mail program. The green lights are all on on the .mac home page. My account expires in October.

I just tested my outgoing mail, which works fine. I sent myself a message through .mac to another email account of mine. No incoming on .mac though.

Now my mail access is back up (with nothing but my test message and three junk items) but mail on the web still says:

"Your information could not be displayed. Click here to try again."

Yes - it seems to be back up. Mine was out of action for about 12 hours.

Just sent my mac mail account a test message from a different mail account with no problems.

Access to my .mac mail through the .mac website is also back up again for me. I first noticed my .mac mail was inaccessible about 3 1/2 hours ago. It could have been down earlier.
